Pinguita de Mono Pepper

Capsicum Annuum

Pinguita de Mono Pepper originates from the jungles of Peru. It is also known as “Little monkey d**k”. This rare variety is among the hottest of the little Aji’s known in Peru measuring 70,000 – 80,000 scoville heat units. It is found in all regions of the Peruvian jungle, mainly in the central valley of Chanchamayo.

The plant is amazing and gets quite big. In a pot it grows to nearly 1.5 to 2 m tall and just as wide. This is an awesome producer that continuously produces mounts of chilli pods all season round.

The Pinguita de Mono Pepper is an easy grower, it is a big and bushy chilli plant. The pods have an absolutely amazing flavour, with a complementing upper mid heat burn. Just lovable, we definitely recommend this chilli variety.
